Seen the www.joe2006.com site today? Same BS as yesterday.
UPDATE ON THE ATTACK ON THE LIEBERMAN CAMPAIGN WEBSITE

STATEMENT FROM SEAN SMITH: "For the past 24 hours the Friends for Joe Lieberman's website and email has been totally disrupted and disabled, we believe that this is the result of a coordinated attack by our political opponents. The campaign has notified the US Attorney and the Connecticut Chief State's Attorney and the campaign will be filing a formal complaint reflecting our concerns. The campaign has also notified the State Attorney General Dick Blumenthal for his review."

"We call on Ned Lamont to make an unqualified statement denouncing this kind of dirty campaign trick and to demand whoever is responsible to cease and desist immediately. Any attempt to suppress voter participation and undermine the voting process on Election Day is deplorable and has no place in our democracy."



Lamont made their requested "unqualified statement" and even offered to assist in getting their website back up almost 24 hours ago.

Ineptitude or calculation? Lieberman is such a sleaze.

1. I was there a short while ago...and the "Under construction" sign
was still up. Nothing more than "Please check back soon. It will be available shortly. Thank you."

And it will be, just as soon as they've got his INDIE campaign site ready for public viewing.

2. I wish everybody would stop calling it an "Indy" campaign. It's NOT.
Joe formed his own political party. He's not running as an Independent. He's running as the candidate for the "Connecticut for Lieberman" party.

He did it just to get his name closer to the top of the ballot...election loophole.

He's chosen NOT to run as an Indy. He CHOSE to form his own political party. Shout that from the rooftops.

3. anybody check whois, to see what sort of bandwidth Joe is buying?
It's quite possible his own people crashed his site by accessing it too much. Someone I know said Joe had purchased the minimum site available.

And then to say it was hacked? Tacky Joe. REAL tacky.
